Organization
FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE:FCH), or FelCor, is a Maryland corporation, operating as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of a greater than 99.5% partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP, through which we held ownership interests in 64 hotels in continuing operations with 18,555 rooms at June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013, we had an aggregate of 124,743,167 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 124,121,786 shares of FelCor common stock and 621,381 FelCor LP units not owned by FelCor.
Of the 64 hotels included in continuing operations, we owned a 100% interest in 46 hotels, a 90% interest in entities owning three hotels, an 82% interest in an entity owning one hotel, a 60% interest in an entity owning one hotel and a 50% interest in entities owning 13 hotels. We consolidate our real estate interests in the 51 hotels in which we held majority interests, and we record the real estate interests of the 13 hotels in which we held 50% interests using the equity method. We leased 63 of the 64 hotels in continuing operations to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, of which we own a controlling interest. One 50% owned hotel was operated without a lease. Because we owned controlling interests in these lessees, we consolidated our interests in these 63 hotels (which we refer to as our Consolidated Hotels) and reflect those hotels’ operating revenues and expenses in our statements of operations.  Of our Consolidated Hotels, we owned 50% of the real estate interests in each of 12 hotels (we accounted for the ownership in our real estate interests of these hotels by the equity method) and majority real estate interests in each of the remaining 51 hotels (we consolidate our real estate interest in these hotels).

1.    Organization — (continued)
In addition to the above hotels, we own a 95% interest in a consolidated joint venture that owns the Knickerbocker Hotel, a former hotel and office building, that is being redeveloped as a 4+ star hotel in midtown Manhattan and is expected to open in early 2014.
Effective January 1, 2013, our hotels managed by Marriott are accounted for on a 12 month calendar year basis as compared to a fiscal year comprised of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Friday closest to December 31, as reported in 2012 and prior years. Our three and six month periods ending June 30, 2013 is reported on a calendar basis for our Marriott-managed hotels, which is consistent with the reporting periods for our other managed hotels. However, our three and six month periods ending June 30, 2012 includes the results of operations for the Marriott-managed hotels for the 12 and 24 week period, respectively, ending June 15, 2012. Prior year results have not been restated to reflect the reporting period transition as we do not believe the change in periods would result in a material difference for comparison of results year over year.
The information in our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is unaudited. Preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.
